  2. Shear stress - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_stress

    The formula to calculate average shear stress τ or force per unit area is: [1] =, where F is the force applied and A is the cross-sectional area.. The area involved corresponds to the material face parallel to the applied force vector, i.e., with surface normal vector perpendicular to the force.

  3. Stress–strain curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress–strain_curve

    In engineering and materials science, a stress–strain curve for a material gives the relationship between stress and strain.It is obtained by gradually applying load to a test coupon and measuring the deformation, from which the stress and strain can be determined (see tensile testing).

  4. Mohr's circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohr's_circle

    To overcome the "issue" of having the shear stress axis downward in the Mohr-circle space, there is an alternative sign convention where positive shear stresses are assumed to rotate the material element in the clockwise direction and negative shear stresses are assumed to rotate the material element in the counterclockwise direction (Figure 5 ...

  5. Simple shear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_shear

    This deformation is differentiated from a pure shear by virtue of the presence of a rigid rotation of the material. [2] [3] When rubber deforms under simple shear, its stress-strain behavior is approximately linear. [4] A rod under torsion is a practical example for a body under simple shear. [5]

  6. Shear and moment diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_and_moment_diagram

    Shear and Bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a concentrated load at mid-span. Shear force and bending moment diagrams are analytical tools used in conjunction with structural analysis to help perform structural design by determining the value of shear forces and bending moments at a given point of a structural element such as a beam.

  7. Strain (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_(mechanics)

    Strain tensor is symmetric and has three linear strain and three shear strain (Cartesian) components." [6] ISO 80000-4 further defines linear strain as the "quotient of change in length of an object and its length" and shear strain as the "quotient of parallel displacement of two surfaces of a layer and the thickness of the layer". [6]

  8. Shear modulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_modulus

    The shear modulus is one of several quantities for measuring the stiffness of materials. All of them arise in the generalized Hooke's law: . Young's modulus E describes the material's strain response to uniaxial stress in the direction of this stress (like pulling on the ends of a wire or putting a weight on top of a column, with the wire getting longer and the column losing height),

  9. File:Shear stress simple.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Shear_stress_simple.svg

    Shear stress: Image title: A shear stress, is applied to the top of the square while the bottom is held in place. This stress results in a strain, or deformation, changing the square into a parallelogram. The area involved would be the top of the parallelogram.
